PRESIDENT of the Rangers Supporters’ Assembly Andy Kerr said he was surprised some sections of the media are still willing to entertain Whyte.

President Andy Kerr said: “I agree 100 per cent... HMRC’s actions allowed Whyte in to drive the hearse to the cemetery. Without the phantom £80million, our club were manageable, marketable and sellable.

“It was this hanging over the club that allowed a guy like Whyte in. Once in the door though, it was a disaster. His version of events was repeatedly found to be untrue.

“I am surprised that some sections of the media are still willing to entertain this guy.

“We have heard all of this self-serving fantasist stuff before. It is still nonsense.”
